ldconfig defaults to the new format for ld.so.cache, something it's already been supporting for nearly two decades.

New....nearly two decades -- We clearly have different definitions for the word new

sounds like this should obviously long being plumbed in ;-)

Oh no.. I wonder if the rabid anti-unix trolls will cry foul. Haha.

Let's make Linux Unix again! <3

Needs rewriting in Rust.

I am still waiting for the rewrite of everything in Java that was the consens of people like you back in 2000.

I've rebased Valve's pthread_mutex_lock_any() and pthread_mutex_timedlock_any() patches onto Glibc 2.32 https://github.com/FireBurn/glibc/commits/2.32 though I'm not sure if valve still care about these at all

rabid anti-unix trolls will cry foul.

Rust is all about doing the work from scratch without much legacy. GLibc is all about legacy.
If anything, I'd like to see in Rust glibc reimplementation fro new machines and architectures, without old compatibility baggage.
If practical, joined with basic GPU/ML interface and anything that goes into modern machine.
